OUR NEW PRINCIPAL, MR. TOSCHES, SAYS: It is a pleasure for me to extend my congratulations to the Class of 1947. As each one of you enters into your chosen line of endeavor, it is my sincere wish that your attendance at the Milford High School will have proved invaluable in the attainment of success, and that you will cherish dearly the happy memories associated with your high school days. rw 1. vm THE SMILING OFFICE WORKERS pose here with Miss Florence Fertitta, Mr. Tosches' friendly and efficient secretary. They courteously wrote out our absent and tardy slips, and, oh yes, capably assigned to us those A-6 sessions, which we no doubt deserved. Oli wonders where the young Russo lad was when the picture was taken. He was always so helpful and willing that we shall give him at least a word-picture here. Yes, these office workers surely did help Florence out in this, her lfirst year. Flo succeeded Mrs. The- resa fDel Castelloj Visconti, of wlzom we were also very fond.

MR. DAVOREN AND MISS DILLON, his secretary, were just about to commence their new duties when this picture was taken. To Mr. Davoren, our superintendent of schools, we extend our sincere congratula- tions and best wishes. That beautiful bouquet of spring flowers was presented by the H. S. Teachers' Club. MR. DAVOREN SENDS HIS GREETINGS: May success shine upon each and every member of the class of 1947. May the teachings and counsel you have received during your Public School education fortify you in the complex responsibility which you are about to assume as citizens of our great freedom-loving and democratic country. May the Class of 1947 enjoy a full share of the multitudinous blessings and oppor- tunities existing in our land today and in days to come.

OUR DIRECTOR OF GUIDANCE says, As school reopens each fall, and as the dreary winter season progresses to welcome the cheerful days of spring, 1 shall recall with pleasure my happy associations with the Class of 1947. I extend to you all a warm and friendly greeting for success in all seasons of the year. I would not be 'in character' unless I advised you to remember 'this above all-to thine own fbestj self be true.' In conclusion, let me remind you once, more to 'Carry the Message to Garcia' in spring or summer, winter or fall. .Jlafmlalfil Mmm OUR ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL says: To the mem- bers of the Class of 1947, who have now reached their Commencement milestone, I extend my heartiest con- gratulations. Taken as a whole, education seeks to do two things: help young persons fulfill the unique, par- ticular functions in life, and fit them so far as it can for those common spheres which, as citizens and heirs of a joint culture, they will share with others. We have striven to direct you toward those goals. May you always do credit to these three institutions: your home, your church, and your school. famei 14.
